Another warm
day made in the shade of the trees a welcome place today but not to worry the
days are getting shorter and of course the cooler days are not very far away. It
was great to see Siringo return today for the first time since his major
surgery. Welcome back Siringo. Most of us had a hard time catching our
horse today not to mention remembering its name....Smile and there was the
sharing out of the gold at Frontier Junction. Did you miss out ? Why don't you
come along and join in the fun at The Last Frontier ? Get the details from the

Firstly
a special thankyou to the visitors that came along today interested in joining
the Last Frontier Shooting Club Inc. I know that you have found a sport being
the closest thing to the Wild West without going looking for in a Time Machine.
Today was the last run of repeat scenarios, next week there will be five stages
all with new content. Just the same it is interesting to compare the times of
past similar events. Congratulations goes to both Cpt.Jackson and Wyatt Earp who
shot the five stages clean. Todays scores are here in the pdf file.27022011.pdf

Pictured is Rooster
Cockburn blasting the pop-can in one of today's action packed scenarios. The
day was quite warm and cloudy after the very early morning rain at 6am.This was
followed by pleasant dry conditions until the last shot was fired for the
morning.....then the Heaven's opened and down came the rain. When lunch was
finished and it was time for all to head off home the sun came out again shining
brightly. A wonderful day of shooting was had by all, thankyou for coming along.

Adverse
weather reporting kept some of the well know shooters away today but still the
diehard were here with guns a blazing.
An enjoyable five stages were shot featuring some trick shooting at the Opal
Mine and a few lessons were taught on Stage 5 by Buckskin Leslie using his wife
as an in between the targets. Due to his expert teaching skills no harm came to
his wife. You will be able to get similar skills next week 7th March,2010. Be
there and get square. Only 8 mm
of rain fell in one heavy shower during the match. Today's scores are here 28022010.pdf

Firstly I would like to 
thank
the Cowboys and Cowgirls that braved the wet conditions today and made our shoot
an enjoyable one. Yes,19 mm of rain fell during the five courses of fire, I
guess in a way the conditions were quite pleasant as we were forced to take
shelter only twice.For those that shot the previous shoot, then you will be able
to compare your scores that are located by clicking on the pdf file.07022010.pdf

Top temperature today was 30
degrees but a cooling southerly made for pleasant shooting conditions. The
cowboys started rolling in at 8am ready for the days competition. It was also
pleasing to see visitors coming for a look see. Thanks Cpt Augustus and
I.D.Claire for issuing out the invitations. Also a very Special Thankyou to the
man that was Doc Holidays lifetime mate Bill Neville,for the perpetual trophy
" Rest Easy Macca Old Mate" he made in honour of his mate". This
award will be won at the Doc Holiday Memorial Shoot the first shoot in
September. Pat Garrett was won by Lane.Todays scores are here in the pdf file. 22022009.pdf

Yes, good shooting weather
again today at The Last Frontier. A mild cloudy day made for fast shooting
scores. It was pleasing to see the southern shooters here again, as one of them
told me "The Last Frontier is one of the premier places to get in some top
practise". Winners of the Pat Garrett were Wild Bill Fisher & Bull
Shot. One Armed Bill was well again after last weeks burn out and he was back in
good form. No Pony just clipped Alabama shooting times, I recond' he will have
to watch out otherwise he may have to walk home in the future. Mohawk didn't
drop his gun today and showed us some mighty fine shooting. Checkout the pdf

The morning
started with a couple of light showers and a temperature of 22c
deg.(ie.66f.degrees for our American friends) and reaching a maximum of 31c
(89f).Five demanding stages were shot and all present had a good time. We had
two visitors today from the United Kingdom. They tell me that real bullets and
pistols and dressing up in the Spirit of the Game are not allowed in the UK. Now
that is something to think about. So to all you shooters in Australia its time
to put Australian apathy aside and start participating in your Clubs Events
before its too late.
